Anthem demo, a phrase that still sounds foreign even as I write it here. With nearly every major and minor release in the modern industry, we are treated to “betas” of games. Sometimes these can be extended tests that last for months, sometimes they can be early preview events that go up a week before launch, effectively demos. But

There's A Good Reason Anthem's Demo Tomorrow Is Not A 'Beta' 10:07 AM Forbes - Paul Tassi Anthem is bucking trends and just calling its demo a demo instead of a beta. Reason is an integrated music recording and production studio with unlimited audio tracks, million-dollar mixing, and a massive collection of sounds included. Reason comes with all the instruments, effects and mixing tools you need for writing, recording, remixing and producing great-sounding tracks.

Anthem is bucking trends and just calling its demo a demo. Why? I asked Anthem producer Michael Gamble:

“For us, we wanted to give players a full slice of what the game was - some story content, a stronghold, some freeplay, customization & progression,” Gamble said. “Essentially give them a taste of everything. Kind of like a..demonstration. Obviously there are things in the demo that aren’t final (some bugs, economy), but it’s demonstrative of what you can do in the game.”

The difference here is that what we’re seeing here is a curated slice of content to show off a wide range of content. This is dissimilar to extended betas which are essentially the full game until the developer wants to slap a “completed” label on it, or other games where you might play only the first 3-4 hours or so or a select few multiplayer maps.

BioWare has taken some flak for the demo’s economy being different from what players will see in the final game, but the idea there is to allow players to experience say, what powerful loot drops will feel like without an insane amount of grinding, or to customize their Javelins without having to shell out real money (some betas will have their microtransaction stores live already). And BioWare isn’t hiding this fact, this is what they send you when you get a code for the demo:

The economy is different than that of the final game. This includes the earn rate on XP, items, Coin and access to certain customization options.
You will start the demo with 100 Coin as a way to encourage you to customize your javelin cosmetics.
For simplicity, each item in the demo costs 25 Coin. In the main game, the price of those items differ.

Actual review copies of the game will have the “proper” economy in place, and I can understand why things would be tweaked here in order to show off some stuff. It’s like how Destiny 2 gave you an exotic weapon in the first moments of the campaign just to show what they would be like, but in the final release, that wasn’t the case. I don’t think that’s “misleading,” I just think it’s trying to show off a broad variety of content which a game like this can’t really do in such a confined slice without changing some things around.

I hope this trend of true demos catches on, because we’re at the point where the term “beta” can mean practically anything, and is used as an excuse for all manner of developer sins (“it’s just in beta!”). Jimmy needham come around. That’s especially the case for games that are going live within a few weeks, like we’re seeing here.

The beta starts tomorrow at noon ET for pre-ordering folks, EA special magic club members and those who have been gifted codes by their friends. Ah crap, I swear I typed beta instead of demo by accident, that’s literally how ingrained it is in me at this point.

Looking forward to seeing what Anthem can do, and actually being able to talk about it since I couldn’t with the closed alpha. See you out there tomorrow.

BioWare has announced two demos for Anthem, and the first--the VIP demo--launches for select players this weekend. The second demo will be open for all, and will launch closer to Anthem's release date. [Update: The VIP demo has now concluded, and as you may have heard, it suffered from some serious server issues that also ended up impacting other EA games. This first demo has now ended, but a second, open demo is coming later this week that will be open to everyone; it runs from February 1-3. EA and BioWare say that many problems will be resolved for this upcoming session.]

Regardless of whether you plan on playing the VIP or free demo, you can pre-load the client right now. It's a 26GB download on consoles and 44GB on PC. You can get an idea of what to expect in our new features on what it's like to play Anthem and what we know about Anthem's endgame.

The VIP demo is available for anyone who pre-orders Anthem or is an EA or Origin Access subscriber. You don't have to go it alone either, as getting access to the VIP demo nets you three free invites you can send to others. In order to refer a friend, just download the demo, install it, and launch. Then, go to the 'refer a friend' tab to receive a unique link you can send to someone else.

According to VG247, your friends don't even have to use the same system as you. An Xbox One player can send a free invite to someone to use on PS4 or PC, for example. However, Anthem does not support cross-system play. If you want to play with your friends, you'll need to tell them to use their free invite on the same system you're using.
